So, did you watch the half hour Obama campaign ad last night? I did. I haven’t scoured the intertubes for reviews, but I thought it was OK. Nicely done, good production values. The couple minutes of the live rally in Florida was a good ending. I noticed he had the flag pin going (too late in the game to fuck with that stuff), and he got all your major demographics and ethnicities in there.
I could live without his pushing ‘clean coal’ all the time, personally. But, I’m willing to overlook that for the time being, as well as the fact that his healthcare plan doesn’t call for a single-payer solution. I guess we’ll just have to work on him once he’s elected.
I liked that he had real families in there (I assume they’re real, anyway), but I thought it was a little disjointed. I’d have had each one highlight a single issue/problem, and then have him come out and say how he was going to fix it. But he certainly didn’t hurt himself. Whether it will bring over any ‘undecided’ voters or not, I don’t know.
It’s hard for me to tell. All I have to do is look at McCain/Palin, and the deal is sealed for me.
